To me his comments were about adapting to what is happening. On days where our offense is being neutralized by a great defense but we are also neutralizing the opposing team's offense, he in particular has to be smart and not give them points with turnovers. In games where the game finds us behind, we have to throw caution to the wind to score taking a lot more risk.

Zac is old school in the sense that there’s a feeling out process early. But Joe is saying if the offense is struggling as is the opponent or other words a defensive battle you don’t get reckless. If it’s a high scoring game then you can’t be conservative. I know 3 former OU OC’s with 5 NC’s. All 3 had specific plays they would run to root out how the defense planned to play them. But it’s also matchups. In our 2 victories ( 1 voided); over Buffalo the staff knew they’d have success offensively and were aggressive. They also were aggressive on the road versus SF. So if a team plays them like they expected then they are more aggressive. So it makes perfect sense what Joe is saying.
